http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/67265 describes what looks like a nice opportunity for wine to prove itself. German employers are required to send insurance information online. There are two allowed methods: either a web page (which apparantly sucks), or a windows app called sv.net classic, available as a free download at http://www.itsg.de/svnet/
I tried installing it, but I didn't get past square one because the mdac installer is more busted than it used to be, at least on my machine. - Dan

MDAC also requires WGA, so we might need to reimplement it anyway first.

MDAC-2.7sp1 is plenty for (most?) VB6 apps, and we definitely want Wine to be able to run them sooner rather than later. So I think this deserves fixing, and there's no need to delay. - Dan

You can install MDAC and the most other Windows components via the Winetools: http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/WineTools/
Installing and running sv.net works fine here.

That's nice, but it's not an acceptable resolution to the problem. Wine should be able to install MDAC without Winetools.

That's nice to hear, but we need sv.net to run without "winetools". - Dan
